94 buick regal, cranking not start. was created by fvalck01
Hi, Im working on a 94 buick regal 3.8 with no spark. When I check the icm for power, I have 12v, the ground is good too. Next I check power to the crank sensor and i have 10 v. then I crank the car and starts and runs good for about a week. After a week of starting with no problem, happens again so I do the same to check it and starts after I check the same wire that feeds power to the sensor. Im confused if my problem is the sensor or the icm. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
Fred.

Sounds like a connection issue at the crank sensor. Spread terminals possibly

I don’t understand what you mean by “ Spread terminals possibly”

You said you were checking power to the crank sensor. We’re you doing this at the icm? Or at the crankshaft sensor?? It seems like you have a connection issue when your checking the power your wiggling something and getting a connection for everything to work

I was checking at the icm. I wiggled all the wires, at the icm and at crankshaft sensor. The funny thing is that is not starting and after I test for power, starts. I'm using and digital multimeter.
